ProSieben or live online on Prosieben Connect.
Hurrah! Die Sommerpause ist kaput, Stefan Raab’s back for another thrilling night of skill games and quizzes and tonight it’s a quadruple rollover, so he’s defending €2.5m of his own money.
WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN?
Well you can join us for a LIVE text commentary right here on the Bar, if we can get naughty streaming.
Viel glück!
Oh I was hoping someone would guess Sweet Home Alabama.
I’m waiting for Raab to get yanked back by his headphones!
And that’s Rolling in the Deep.
OOOH, and Manuela wins her first game!
Raab still leads 6:4.
Rolling In The Deep?
Derp! My stream must have been behind a bit…
Manuela wins one!
Manuela 4 – 6 Stefan
Not a whitewash!!
28th September the Bundesvision Song Contest!
Great round, that. Some tricky ones in there
I like how the advert music for the BSC is Wadde Hadde Dudde Da.
I’m terrible at music rounds. For example, I could sing along with the tune of that last one, and know “oh yeah it’s that one by Adele”, but I couldn’t have named it in a million years.
Yeah, it’s not really a title that sticks in your mind, is it?
It’s not so much that as just titles (and lyrics in general really) don’t stick in my mind at all.
An advert for the new WoW expansion, and it’s a Kung-Fu Panda ripoff…
Are you having less lag making comments or something? 😛
Advert for World of Warcraft Does Kung Fu Panda, there.
Is that the German Captain Birdseye?
Holy crap, it’s the German Captain Birdseye!
I like how two of us make a comment about WoW, and another two make a comment about Captain Birdseye.
Maybe it’s his German brother, Captain Iglo 😀
TV Total, there.
For those who are curious, connect.prosieben.de streams quite nicely on mobile. I’m watching now, albeit silently.
And we’re back. I guess it’ll be the first musical number of the night, so tine to put the kettle on or ‘answer the call of nature’ so to speak…
And it’s a performance by JOSS STONE!
Are the acts usually after games 4 and 8 – or do they fit in a bit?
I think they’re whenever they need to set something up, I think.
Lasers!
Game Five for five points: magnet Fussball
And to think the last time I heard her voice she was being shot in the face in 007 Blood Stone.
Spiel 5 – Magnet Fussball (Magnet Football)
This looks interesting…
Game 5 – Magnet Fussball
magnet… football then.
Right, having just got back in: Proseiben Connect is brilliant. For me, at least, it just goes to a Schlag den Raab logo and silence during the commercials.
And now, “magnet foosball”! I think even I can translate that.
That’s a mighty big trolley for a not-very-big podium…
Football with magnets under the table, by the looks of things. I can speak German in much the same way that Dory from Finding Nemo speaks whale…
Surprisingly engrossing actually.
Right, it’s a game if table football. Both players have two players they control with magnets underneath the table.
This game is exactly why we watch SdR – this is so strange!
It’s football as played by The Woodentops.
Stefan adopting the tactic of keeping his two guys together. Provides a bigger shield but less coverage if the ball goes in an unexpected direction.
This actually looks rather fun! I wouldn’t mind a go at this
Stefan very much on the attack and keeping manuela on the defense. He’s up 3-0 already.
This is like table football, BUT BETTER.
Gary Male: “One word for this. WANT.”
I don’t know what this is first to.
First goal for Manuela, it’s 5-1 now
Stefan wins it 6-1
Manuela 4 – 10 Stefan
11, I mean
Raab wins 6-1!
He’s now 11:4 up.
Game 6: blindenschrift. Blind something.
Game 6 – Braille letters.
Ah, it’s braille.
Ooh, Braille! I could read this by sight (ironically) at one point.
Spiel 6 – Blindenschrift (Braille)
I guess it involves learning Braille and deciphering a phrase
Identify the braille messages by touch only, I assume?
Nice system ensuring they start at the same time!
Right, they can see an A-Z, but they must feel out the phrases.
First to 3 wins, I heard there
This is a tough game – and a visually, erm, anticlimactic one.
Stefan gets the first phrase…
